Book 10: Chapter 46


    Good morning, Ling Yue.


    Good morning greeted Ling Yue. She paused for a moment after greeting me before asking, Youve been outside the entire day for thest two days. You havent slept at night, either. Can you hold up?


    I chuckled, Of course I can. This will end soon. I can deploy my n very soon. Im very surprised to see you worrying about me all of a sudden.


    Ling Yue went red in the face. However, she didnt rebuke me in a proud voice. Instead, she meekly lowered her tail and softly exined, I dont have a choice The the only person who can stay by my side, listen to me and I can miss now is you Tanya doesnt speak to me. The guards direct their anger over Philes death at me, because of my identity as an anthropoid Marvel has passed away, and Ive lost the ce I can reminiscence I There is nobody left in this world who pays me any attention anymore, besides you


    I looked at Ling Yue. It appeared as though she squeezed a massive amount of sadness into her small body. I walked up close to her and grabbed hold of her hand. I asked, Ling Yue, do you still miss Marvel?


    He is the only one Ive loved and the only one who ever said he loved me, so how could I forget him? rhetorically asked Ling Yue. She wiped her tears before continuing on as she quivered, But thats all gone. Everything is gone. I never thought that things would turn out this way. Perhaps I was too nave. I never ever thought that Marvel would leave me. I had lots of things to ask him. I had lots of things I wanted to say to him, but thats impossible now.


    Its war, so there are bound to be people who die. Perhaps what you dont understand is war. I remarked.


    Her hands weakly fidgeted in mine the same way I held Lunas hand back then. She raised her head up to look at me and weakly questioned, Can you still win?


    I looked at her blood-red eyes and asked, Are you questioning me?


    She shook her head. While still shaking, she exined, No. I am afraid that you will be a second Marvel If something happens to you, as well if you die like Marvel and Philes have, I really will have nobody left to talk to and rely on I I I dont want that sort of world It it would be too lonely


    I pressed my hand on her shoulder gently. She didnt speak or resist this time. I finally pulled her into my gentle embrace. She shuddered before gently resting her head on my chest. Her two pointy ears brushed my jaw. I stroked her back and resolutely said, I wont leave you, and I wont die. Ill live on for my wives, my moms and you. I told you that Im your knight. Ill make sure your dream bes a reality and, by that, I mean not only avenging you, but also apanying you


    Youre a human


    She muttered that sentence on my chest in a soft voice. She didnt resist this time, but she didnt hug me, either. I sped her face and raised it up. I looked at her haggard face.


    Ling Yue was really pretty, very pretty, as a matter of fact. I didnt know when I forgot about monogamy. Maybe it was after I married Nier and Lucia. Maybe it was when I hugged Mommy Elizabeth and Mommy Vyvyan. But, I no longer minded the fact that I was married.


    I wanted to kiss Ling Yue on her lips. I had no reason to like Ling Yue. Maybe it was because she was different to others, but maybe it was because I had sympathy for her. Maybe it was because seeing her sadness and tears reminded me of the full-moon night. Whatever the case was, I wanted to kiss her lips in that moment.


    Maybe it was because she was the only one waiting for me every time I came back exhausted and would say, Wee back.


    <strong>*p!!!*</strong>


    All right. My mistake.


    Ling Yue shoved me away with one arm. She looked at me angrily and shouted, What do you want to do to me?! You take advantage of me every time! How does the human brain work?! Do you humans only think of women?! Go find your wives if you want to do this sort of thing! Im not your wife, you bully, pervert, creep!!


    I rubbed my face where she just viciously pped me. I smiled helplessly, Sorry, sorry, I dont know why, but I always have an urge to kiss you when I hold you in my arms. Maybe its because I like you Uhm I think I like you


    Disgusting!! You phndering pervert! You told me about how you love your wife Lucia so much and now here you are, telling another woman you like her?! Your wife is pregnant, too! You seriously are rotten to the core!!


    Ling Yue folded her arms, and then angrily turned away. She shifted her tail to the front of her body to avoid letting me catch it. I smiled helplessly, All right. I admit I wronged my wives just now, but Ive already wronged them. I wasntpletely responsible for it, though.


    You! You! We agreed not to talk about what happened that day!!


    Ling Yue spun back around and revealed her fangs. The fur on her tail gradually began to stand up. That was a ssic Ling Yue action whenever she was angry. She was a beast, no doubt about that. She was wishing she could bite my neck off. I looked at her, raised my hands up high and backed down, Okay, okay, okay, I get it. I get it. Im very sorry. But do you feel a bit better now?


    Thats not how you cheer girls up! Just how did you get your wives to fall for you?!


    I like your current reaction more, I said. I turned around. I need to go see Tanya and Shusia now. Do you want toe with me? Actually, I think its best that youe with me.


    She hesitated for a moment, and then sighed, They wont wee me


    I looked at her and firmly told her, They will wee you, because theyre my subordinates, while youre now umm my guest, I guess. Ill bring you with me this time to make them aware of that. Ling Yue, youre not alone, and you dont have just me alone. Not only will I help you return home, but also allow you to live as you did in the past. Youll have friends, a family and even somebody you love.


    She looked at me nkly. Her gaze was filled with disbelief. Still, I noticed her tail swinging gently.


    Tch. As if Id believe you. Youve promised me way too many things. Im not your wife, you know? I wont believe you so easily! Hmph! Even if I find someone else to love, itll never be you! Never!!


    ========


    The young girl left the library and returned home. She had lots of questions to ask her dad, but she needed to solve an issue due to the weather first.


    Ah, Im back


    The young girl pushed the door open. The maid weed her with a smile. She looked at her and said, Wee back, Miss. Did you want to eat or drink something? How about a cold drink for starters?


    Thank you.


    Although she was a maid, the young girl still looked at her with great respect. It was clear that the maid was different. She had more freedompared to others and had a more regal aura. The maid smiled and turned around. The young girl made a long sigh, and then vigorously removed her belt, allowing her furry tail to lift up her skirt. The young girl scooped her skirt up,pletely ignoring the fact that her sling socks were revealed. Her tail swung simrly to a fan. The young girl shivered from head to toe, and then let out a soothing moan.


    Her tail sometimes made her really ufortable especially during summer!
